You can unset the compare side bar in the layout file of your theme. I added a new file in /app/design/frontend/myTheme/layout/local.xml where I unset the compare side bar using:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<layout>
<default>
    <action method="unsetChild"><name>catalog.compare.sidebar</name></action>
</default>
</layout>

Don't edit the default files as they will get overwritten on update.

I just had this same problem, and was able to remove the compare block using xml.

In my situation, I did not want change to a 1-column layout because of what I've already done with the right-col layout.

Solution:

  • Copy "catalog.xml" from /app/design/frontend/base/default/layout or /app/design/frontend/rwd/default/layout if you're using the new rwd theme.

  • Go to line 55 and remove or comment out the entire <reference name="right"> block:

    <reference name="right">
    <block type="catalog/product_compare_sidebar" before="cart_sidebar" name="catalog.compare.sidebar" template="catalog/product/compare/sidebar.phtml"/>
    <!--<block type="core/template" name="right.permanent.callout" template="callouts/right_col.phtml">-->
        <!--<action method="setImgSrc"><src>images/media/col_right_callout.jpg</src></action>-->
        <!--<action method="setImgAlt" translate="alt" module="catalog"><alt>Keep your eyes open for our special Back to School items and save A LOT!</alt></action>-->
    <!--</block>-->
</reference>

  • Go to line 178 (for rwd_default) or 165 (for base_default) and remove or comment out the <customer_account_index> block of code:

    <customer_account_index>
<reference name="right">
    <action method="unsetChild"><name>catalog.compare.sidebar</name></action>
</reference>

  • Save the file into your custom theme layout folder as "catalog.xml".

To remove from Home Page to to Admin panel CMS/PAGES/Home Page then go to Design Tab there the first option is Layout. Change it to 1 column. SO it will change the layout of (only )Home Page to one column without left and right.
